Question

In Wedge-Dash Notation for three-Dimensional Representation of an organic molecule, the wedged bond represents -------------.

• A. a bond below the plane of the paper
• B. a bond above the plane of the paper
• C. a bond in the plane of the paper
• D. a bond either above or below the plane of the paper

Answer 1

The correct option is B a bond above the plane of the paper

In Wedge-Dash Notation for three-Dimensional representation of an organic molecule, the dashed bond represents a bond below the plane of the paper. The wedged bond represents a bond above the plane of the paper. The remaining two bonds (represented by solid line) are in the plane of the paper.
